THE GREAT ROUND WORLD offers five prizes, each to be a book costing not over $2.50, and to be selected by the winners, for each of the best five commercial maps of the United States, to be sent in before February 1st. These maps are to be filled in, without assistance, by the contestants; Klemm's Relief Map of the United-States to be used for this purpose; one of these Relief Maps will be sent without charge to any subscriber who wishes to compete. Directions for the competition will be found in THE GREAT ROUND WORLD, No. 4, under story of "Pioneer Settlers of Marietta, Ohio."

A pair of skates will be given to the boy or girl who will fill in and send the most complete set of political maps of the five continents by February 1st. These maps are to be the Klemm's Relief Maps, and the political divisions are to be represented entirely by color, with an index on the margin of the maps to show which colors represent the different nations. The skates given as this prize may be selected by the winner.
